My First Ball!

Well, it wasn't exactly planned, but the price was sure right! I got my first ball python tonight. The university is cutting back on their herp collection, so I was able to adopt a few snakes...

Here's a couple of quick shots of the female ball that they gave me.







She's probably around 4.5 feet or so and weighed in at 1,650g! What a piggie! She's definitely a beauty though! I also picked up a nice subadult female BCI, and two bullsnakes: one normal and one whitesided!

Thanks for looking,

Brent Strande

Sounds like a good score to me. Adopting animals sometimes means hitting the motherlode. Congrats on yours. Hope to see some pics of the others.

That's sweet! Congrats on getting such a beautiful girl -- at such an awesome price I might be just a *little* bit jealous, but congrats all the same. LOL.

Even better news... I offered food to all the new snakes tonight (actually, offered a rat to the normal bull last night and he took!) and they each took!

So, not only did I get a FREE, ADULT, ball python, but it's FEEDING ON RATS!!! Score!
